Topic: Master Replicas Force FX Lightsabers (Read 41849 times)

This is probably a dumb question, but I haven't kept up on these 100%, and I was curious how many (which ones) of these FX sabers there are? I'd really like to get one, eventually, but due to the price being $100+, I just want to choose one to have. I saw on Wal-Mart.com they seem to have an Anakin and also a Vader saber, are there any others that are out? Luke or Obi-Wan as well? Also, where is the best place to pick these up? Thanks for any info.

Edit: I also see via MR's website that they have a Luke saber listed as well, release date of this summer.

Jeff is one of the best people to deal with on the web. His Mace Saber is the best price I've seen and if he doesn't ship to Canada (I know its free shipping in the USA), I can order it for you and ship it to me and then forward it on to you. You'd only have to pay the actual shipping cost from me to you.

Oh dear, we have the same questions going on in three different threads, mostly my bad. There's fx questions in the official MR thread, then one done in Watto's.

There are to the best of my knowledge five that were released that required six batteries and had varying degrees of electronics (i.e. the blade lit up entirely, or the light moved up the blade; also the quality of the sounds was somewhat variable.

These come with stands, but was wondering if anyone makes stands to hold multiple sabers?

Yes someone has made stands to hold multiple ones. It's like a pool cue rack. I never got one since I didn't want my sabers displayed that way and am looking into buying a baseball bat rack. I've seen a set displayed that way and that's the best one, IMHO.

I tried mine on one that my in-laws have and the saber doesn't lay straight. One would think it would work but the "arms" are very far away from one another and the saber lays at a funny angle. It could be due to the type of gun rack but I don't know that much about rifles. All I know is this particular one didn't work but maybe a different type would.

If you're good with woodworking, this is something that would be a good project. My father just made a rack for some rifles of his and I'm pondering a rack for FX Sabers now myself. Be a worthy investment if I'm nabbing more than one saber, which after this one I'm feeling an overwhelming urge to pick up at least different colored ones (A Vader maybe, a Jedi Luke, and a Mace)...

I hear ya. Now, if only they would re-release that Green Luke Saber. I really dig the hilt on it.

I was reading a interview with MR and they will not be doing a Dooku or Yoda saber Because of the shape and size of both hilts, it would be hard to do the electronics. Plus, they thought that the Dooku saber would not be popular.

If you haven't been into your local Best Buy recently, you might want to swing in and do some snooping around. Most (not all) Best Buys are carrying the FX Anakin (EP3) and Darth Vader (EP5) FX Lightsabers. Each are $120, and they are also carrying the .45 scale as well.
